Do you have trouble falling asleep? Pink noise can help you sleep deeply. Pink noise consists of all frequencies we can hear, but its energy is more  intense at lower frequencies. Nature is full of pink noise. The sound of rustling leaves, steady rain, wind, or heartbeats is all pink noise. Some noises, like honking cars or barking dogs, stimulate your brain and prevent deep sleep. However, pink noise sounds “flat” or “even” to your ear and it helps          . Why don’t you listen to pink noise before sleeping tonight?

Reframing is a technique used in therapy to help people change          . It’s like looking through a camera lens. The picture seen through the lens can be changed to a view that is closer or further away. In this way, the picture is both viewed and experienced differently. Take a boy’s situation as an example. He’s upset because he didn’t make the basketball team. A therapist tries to reframe how the boy views his failure by asking, “What positive things can come from not making the team?” The boy can say he will have more free time and with more practice, he might make the team next year.

① the relationship with others

② the team they are joining

③ their free time activities

Why do we eat food at all? One answer is obvious: to stay alive. Food is a fuel for our bodies. It keeps us moving and working. The better the quality of the food, the better our bodies work. But is there another answer? Preparing and eating good food is the          of life. We can get great enjoyment from the taste, appearance, and smell of a well-cooked dish. If we eat a well-prepared meal that looks good and delicious, it can be a delightful experience.

What do advertising and map-making have in common? Without doubt, they both share the need to communicate a limited version of the truth. An advertisement must create an appealing image and a map must present a clear image. However, neither can meet its goal by                . Ads will cover up or play down negative aspects of the company or service they advertise. In this way, they can compare their products with similar products and promote their better features. Likewise, the map must remove details that would be confusing.

① reducing the amount of information

② telling or showing everything

③ listening to people’s voices

④ relying on visual images only

⑤ making itself available to everyone

A lovely technique for helping children create their own, unique story, is to ask them to                . I usually use a story called St. Benno and the Frog. In the original, the saint meets a frog in a marsh and tells it to be quiet in case it disturbs his prayers. Later, he regrets this, in case God was enjoying listening to the sound of the frog. I invite children to think of different animals for the saint to meet and different places for him to meet them. I then tell children the story including their own ideas. It is a most effective way of involving children in creating stories and they love hearing their ideas used.

* marsh: 늪

① help you complete a story before you tell it

② choose some books they are interested in
